The worst someone can say is "no" but you don't know if you don't ask. I never use the Butler so I can take or leave this. Stocked bar is not a big deal either. I can bring a drink back from any bar. The only valuable things to me are eating in Luminae, priory boarding/disembarking, the suite OBC and suite lounge. I forgot my sea pass card because it's my souvenir from my trip. I haven't tried the IV yet. I have an upcoming Beyond sailing in one. I think I am going to like it. I don't spend much time on the balcony. There are not enough sunrises/sunsets off the ocean to see and I like the extra light in the room but hardly open doors and go out. People talk about bringing drinks back to the room but my hands are not steady. I’m afraid I’d spill half of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not the suite restaurant, which IMO is so much better then Blu. Also, the suite lounge is wonderful and depending upon the ship, the suite deck is also great- And the points? More for a suite. I truly look foward to those perks and wouldn't change, unless they offered me a full refund and an aqua cabin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t book suites because if I did, I’d worry that someone with a smaller suite was allowed into the lounge or the restaurant ahead of me. 🥸 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can check out the website (https://www.celebritycruises.com/things-to-do-onboard/staterooms/suite-class/aqua-sky-suite) or this brochure. I suspect the website is more accurate but perhaps less detailed. My impression is that they do indeed have the suite benefits (similar to Sky Suites) and also spa benefits.

The flyer linked here seems to say otherwise re suite benefits..in the new Aqua Suite rooms, that is. Edited October 24, 2022 by PTC DAWG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They changed my favorite S2's on S class ships to a AS. I'm fine with any M class sky suite. When it comes to S Class. We were just on Solstice in 2114. We could still hear some noise from the OC. 2114 will become a AS. This fall we have our 1st CS booked on Eclipse. When it comes to the Aqua Suites we just wont use the extra benefits. People tell me that Celebrity has a Spa and Gym. 🙄 Edited October 24, 2022 by bigbenboys added info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need a drink to steady your hands, but when you get one you spill half of it... especially true first thing in the morning... or maybe that's just me 😂 2 hours ago, zitsky said: I’m still trying to figure out what a RichYak is.

Rare jean87510 Posted October 24, 2022 #98 Share Posted October 24, 2022 They were doing this on my Allure of the Seas sailing this week. Offered people in a junior suite $300 plus the difference in cruise fare to switch to a balcony. I would actually switch if they gave me all the retreat benefits. I'd just go to an inside or OV and go to the retreat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
